Fair use rationale for Image:Cataneseanthony md.jpg

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Cataneseanthony md.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. After Midnight 0001 02:45, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Florida Atlantic University

I graduated from FAU in 1987. The page looks terrific! Thanks for doing such a great job on this article. You may want to consider adding information about FAU High School. I don't know enough about it to edit the page and I don't want to mess up an FA but FAU High School is a public school where students attend FAU classes and earn both college and high school credit. It is free except for a $500 activity fee and allows high acheiving students the opportunity to shave off a couple of years of college while completing high school.

Releasing IP addresses of registered users: the Video Professor incident

You commented on this issue at User talk:Jimbo Wales/Archive 31#Wikipedia surrendering users' info without a fight. It was stated there that it was not an appropriate discussion forum for the topic of how hard the Foundation should and did fight to prevent revealing the IP addresses of registered users to parties who had been criticized in a Wikipedia article and who subpoenaed the user information. I have started a discussion at the Village Pump policy page at Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)# Releasing IP addresses of registered users: the Video Professor incident. Your comments are welcome. Thanks. Edison (talk) 15:15, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Brogan.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Brogan.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 04:32, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

FAU Edits

Thank you for your comments regarding the edits I posted to the FAU article. While I appreciate the importance of neutrality, there are certain facts that should be corrected:

1) FAU does not have "satellite" campuses. Florida statutes (1004.36) uniquley use the phrase "partner" campuses as it relates to FAU.

2) The Harbor Branch Oceanographic Insitution is now officially called the "Harbor Branch Oceanographic Insitute"

3) The University has 10 colleges (added The Graduate College last year) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Faumarketing (talk • contribs) 18:28, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Oh wise admin coach...

I, your prodigal pupil, have been busy in the real world the last two months, and am only now getting back to Wikipedia. I will try to get the latest coaching questions done sometime this week. I just wanted to touch base and let you know that I am still eager to continue my studies. Thanks! KnightLago (talk) 21:23, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

 :P Sacred cow... :P
Oh, the last few months have been busy for me too! I've hardly had any time on Wikipedia at all...

University Press (Florida Atlantic University)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of University Press (Florida Atlantic University), and it appears to be very similar to another wikipedia page: University Press. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 00:12, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Warning

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly, as you are doing at University Press (Florida Atlantic University). If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. GreenJoe 02:42, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

Shenme (talk) 04:03, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Dear Mr.KnightLago..

I would like to make it a point that my edits to the Pell City High School page was not Vandalism, but in fact, in all honesty; the truth. Being a student of the school for two years, I think I would know more about my own school than you; a "Wikipedia edit watcher." Thank you, and please stop harassing me by taking away my dear posts.

The incident involving Shenme, was brought upon by himself, for as well hiding the truth from the masses. Thank you, and good night. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BlackFelixRose (talkcontribs) 04:04, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Reverts to UP

May I ask how I was going overboard? What is it need to know who the adviser is for a student organization? Additionally it is in the lead as if that information is the most important. What I am getting at is it looks like an advertisement for for Michael Koretzky.

Also I have noticed that User:163.192.21.43, User:76.110.159.118 and User:Jeparsley all have very similar edits I suspect they might be the same person. --Jerm (Talk/ Contrib) 01:24, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Ah maybe I should have wrote a better edit summary. That second statement was for my removable of the line "In 2007, the UP redesigned its online product and added daily news, blogs, videos from Owl TV and music from Owl Radio. It has become the first such college newspaper in the United States to do so .[citation needed]".
I still disagree what listing the advisor is needed. Who the advisor is doesn't make or break the paper. He is not writing, editing or publishing the articles.--Jerm (Talk/ Contrib) 01:42, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

The NPOV tag is for the many reverts about who owns what and the list of editors. There is an issue with the article and it seems to be going no where. I am also writing a little more on the article talk page. --Jerm (Talk/ Contrib) 02:04, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments on the UCR article

Sorry if I seemed snippy. It's not that I'm sensitive to criticism of the campus or the article, but the alumni of that school tend to be both it's most impassioned defenders and detractors, and if it wasn't for the huge conflict that took place over that article in 2005-2006 I probably wouldn't have engaged with Wikipedia to the extent that I have, nor would I have bothered, over the long term, to attempt to make that article compliant with the highest of WP standards. In any case, all it's detractors could harp on was the location of the med school program in the basement of a building and some trailers, and some BS comments they wanted to quote from college application message forums, along with Riverside smog and local stereotypes of the 909 area code. Smog is the only input of their's that I kept, as there is, still, overly substantial basis for it, but I've mainly documented that in the Inland Empire (California) article and may try moving that to GA over the next several months, along with several of the other UC articles.

Americablog

Dear Mr.KnightLago:

My citation was to Americablog which has become increasingly anti-Hillary in the past months. I'm not trying to be inflamatory -- I just wanted to state that the writers are against her candidacy for US president.

Editing of Green Bin

Thanks KnightLago! D —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew.Dekker (talkcontribs) 16:03, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi KnightLago,

I understand the editing of content to move away from commercial purposes. I did notice that a manufacturer is listed under the Blue Box (container) topic Major Canadian Supplier - Norseman Plastics http://www.norsemanplastics.com

If they are allowed inclusion to the wikipedia, I'm not sure why another supplier cannot be listed. The main goal here is not commercial. My goal here talking about accesibility to the improvement of the environment and not commercial purposes. Thanks, Drew —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrew.Dekker (talkcontribs) 15:53, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Doosan Construction & Engineering

Hi, you tagged the article as spam, but I removed the tag and tried to clean it up a bit since I believe the subject itself is notable. It didn't look as bad as it was before (I deleted it on one of the occasions), so I believe there was enough content to salvage to make it worthwhile. If you still think it looks spammy, please take it to afd (or leave me a message and I'll do that). Thanks. - Bobet 16:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Request third-party settlement

Sorry to bother you, but this is rather urgent. a user has accused me of libel and personal attacks, wheras I do not see how that has happened. Since you were involved in an area where this occured, I would like to request that you try to establish a truce, as the user in question has threatened to get me blocked when I responded. I read the resolution guide and figured this was the best step I could take.

If you agree, here are the pages in which our conversations occured.

Teh Rote (talk) 00:56, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

This user has accused me of repeatedly nominating Uncyclopedia for deletion. I have done that only once, and I admit it was a mistake, and that the incident could have been handled better. That does not mean I have done it 5+ times. Slander: proven
He also accused me of accusing every Uncyclopedia users as vandals. This user deliberately took the sentence he quoted out of context in his continuing efforts to sully my good name. The context of the sentence he quoted was that all Uncyclopedia editors who vandalize on Wikipedia have done nothing other than creating damage and destruction here on Wikipedia. The user in question has also acknowledged the fact that there are Uncyclopedia editors who vandalize here on WIkipedia. Slander: proven
He also accused me of attacking him personally. He deliberately took this as a personal insult, and used it as a flimsy pretext to escalate the incident. My attacks were against Uncyclopedia editors who vandalize here on WIkipedia, and I have stated at least two times that unless he vandalizes here on Wikipedia, I did not attack him. Which begs the question: Is Teh Rote a Wikipedia vandal? Since he took this so personally.
The above facts have proven that Teh Rote has engaged in a shameless, insidious, and tawdry campaign to smear my good name here on Wikipedia, and it is within my right to defend my good name, within the rules of no legal threat on Wikipedia. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 01:07, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

I was going to leave a message on your user page, but this is as good a place as any. First, both of you need to take a step back, relax, and breathe. We are all here for the betterment of the project, and this is not helpful. Second, the use of legal terms and accusations is counterproductive as it only puts other people on the defensive. The use of large text warnings and messages is also counterproductive. Third, I would encourage you both to try and avoid commenting on each other's edits. Stick to the content. If I were you guys I would try and avoid each other for a few days, let things cool down, and focus on helping the project and content and not each other.
